Shanties
By JEAN LUTES
Assistant University Editor
The shanty UNC students built in
front of South Building Monday to
protest UNCs investments in South
Africa does not stand alone.
In the past two years, shanties
have been built by students at
hundreds of colleges and universities
across the country to urge institu
tions to break financial ties with
South Africa.
But they haven't all been allowed
to stand.
For instance, students at Cornell
University in Ithaca, N.Y., have built
shanties four times since Oct. 7, only
to have them torn down by public
safety officials each time, a Cornell
official said Tuesday.
In spring 1985, Cornell students
built the first "shanty-tow n." Officials
let the shanties stand for more than
two months, said David Stewart,
assistant to the vice president for
university relations at Cornell.
Despite student protests, Cornell has
not divested fully, he said.

apartheid protesters nationwide

Coach Dick Crum, whose team
has a good shot at going to the Aloha
Bowl, said Tuesday that he won't be
saying aloha to Chapel Hill any time
soon.
Athletic Director John Swofford
said he had been contacted Friday
by Purdue Athletic Director George
King about the possibility of talking
to Crum for the Purdue football
coaching job that becomes vacant at
season's end. However, Crum said
Tuesday he had not been contacted
by the Boilermakers, nor was he
interested in contacting them.

Because of federal cuts in financial aid,
alternative scholarship monies must be found so
UNC can remain competitve in student recruit
ment, according to a University report.
Although new scholarship programs have been
established over recent years, rising living costs
have also increased, setting off those increases,
according to a subcommittee report to the faculty
council.
Financial aid packages this year are 5 percent
less in scholarships and grant aid than last year,
when such aid composed 55 percent of the
package.
"A further decrease in the scholarship grant
portion would result in an unreasonable burden
for a student," the report said.
In its report, the committee stated that to be
competitive with other universities offering
acceptable student aid packages, they should
include at least 60 percent scholarship and grant
funds.
Because of federal cuts, University students
will lose $230,000 in grant eligibility in 1986-

actually live in shanties, members of
UNCs Anti-Apartheid Support
Group said Tuesday.
Members of the group are occu
pying the shanty in Polk Place day
and night to convince UNCs
Endowment Board to vote for
divestment at its meeting Thursday.
"Some people misunderstand the
symbol," said group member Keith
Griffler. "People aren't out here
because they're trying to pretend that
they're South Africans.
"It's really saying you have all this
beautiful campus around you, but
this is where the money is coming
from," Griffler said, pointing to the
wooden shanty.
When Donald Boulton, vice chan
cellor and dean of student affairs,
decided Monday to allow students
to construct the shanty, he said he
wanted to preserve UNCs tradition
of student protest.
That tradition is long and varied.
Building shanties is only one of the
ways UNC students have protested
both national and local issues
throughout the University's history.
One of the first protests at UNC
occurred in fall 1805, after the Board
'Mattering :o be cunsicw;.U for
another job. But I'm not seeking
other employment. I'm not inter
ested in leaving Chapel Hill."
Crum said he thought several
other coaches were actively trying to
get the Purdue post. "Some coaches
are pursuing the job very hard," he
said. "I have not made any overtures
to Purdue."
Swofford said he didn't know
what all the fuss was about. "I'm a
little surprised this has received so
much attention, because I don't find
it particularly extraordinary for an
AD to call me and inquire about a
coach," he said. "It's going to happen
if the coach has any semblance of
success."
87, and as many as 3,000 graduate and profes
sional students will not be eligible for Guaranteed
Student Loans. The loans have also been a
primary aid source for middle-class
undergraduates.
Because of the need to make better use of
existing resources and investigate new ones, a
task force was created from members of the
committee and others appointed by Chancellor
Christopher Fordham.
Seth R. Reice, associate biology professor and
task force member, said he felt students got more
out of scholarships and grants than any part
time job. "I'm a big supporter of the work-study
program," he said. "I don't think a student gets
any real academic enhancement out of delivering
pizzas."
The committee pointed out that an academ
ically talented student, who may not need
financial assistance, should not be ignored.
Scholarships and grants are based on need, the
report stated, while a merit awards program
would recognize academic excellence in 100
freshmen.
"If we have a merit program," Reice said,

The flush toilet
of Trustees adopted a disciplinary
policy requiring students to sign an
agreement to obey rules and report
all student infractions to faculty.
All but four students refused to
sign the agreement, and they left the
University. In December, the board
unanimously repealed the ordinance.
Because of the protest, only 3
students graduated from the Univer
sity in 1805.
Although decisions by University
adminstrators have also been the
subject of more recent student
protests, national issues have
inspired some of the most memor
able demonstrations.
On May 6, 1970, 4,000 students
marched down Franklin Street
holding coffins aloft at the front of
the line after National Guardsmen
shot and killed four Kent State
University students.
A favorite site for civil rights
demonstrations in the 1960s was The
Rock Pile, a whites-only general
store on Estes Drive. The owner of
the store often threw buckets of
water and ammonia at students who

Crum did not rule out f
sibility that he would talk to Purdue
after the season was over. "I haven't
thought that far in advance," he said.
"Right now, we've got business to
attend to with Duke."
Crum talked to his players Mon
day evening to tell them about the
Purdue contact. "It's unfortunate
that it comes out like this, but they
kind of got a kick out of (media)
guarding the fieldhouse and trying
to take their picture."
Wide receiver Eric Streater said
he wasn't worried that Crum would
take the Purdue job, which will be
vacated by Leon Burtnett at the end

Division of Student Affairs keeps
campus needs and interests at heart
By TERESA KRIEGSMAN
Staff Writer
Students cannot live by academics
alone, so the Division of Student
Affairs provides programs and
services designed to give students a
total learning experience.
"It's true that much learning is
going to take place outside the
classroom," said James Cansler,
associate vice chancellor and asso
ciate dean. "Much growth and
development will take place where
you live, how you live, who you
relate to and the kinds of causes you
get involved in.
"The Division of Student Affairs
is that part of the University that
is principally concerned with this
out-of-classroom learning."
The work of the division is divided
into two categories services and
programs but the line between
them is blurred.
"While there are these two func
tions, they are never that cleanly
separated," Cansler said. "For

WASHINGTON President
Reagan's proposed budget for the
next fiscal year may seek up to a
record $54 billion in spending cuts
and other savings, a 6 percent
increase in defense spending and no
new taxes, administration officials
,said Tuesday.
Those figures, confirmed in part
by budget director James Miller III
and in part by other administration
officials, would be included in a
budget document designed to pare
the federal deficit to $108 billion in
the fiscal year that begins next Oct.
1.
Miller said "judicious trimming of
bloated programs," along with new
user fees, sales of federal assets and
loan portfolios and some program
eliminations would be proposed to
meet the $108 billion level, which is
the fiscal 1988 target of the Gramm
Rudman budget-balancing law.
In a speech to the National
Electrical Association, Miller said
the White House still intends to meet
the target, despite recent talk by
Democratic congressional leaders of
easing it.
One administration source, who
spoke on condition of anonymity,
said the Office of Management and
Budget headed by Miller is consid
example, in the Student Health
Service the clinical medicine aspect
is a service, but the health education
is more programmatic. It would be
possible to have some of the serv ices
without any programmatic part, but
it wouldn't be nearly as important
or meaningful."
The division's work is done by a
variety of departments. These
include the Dean of Students Office,
University Housing, Career Plan
ning and Placement Services, Cam
pus Y, the 'University band, Student
Health Services, the Student Union,
the Fellows Program, International
Center, Handicapped Student Ser
vices and Student Development and
Counseling Center.

separate departments, but it is small

proposals it proposed unsuccessfully
this year, but with some major
modifications and exceptions.
Speaking with reporters after his
speech, Miller confirmed that all but
two federal agencies the Educa
tion and Energy departments had
submitted preliminary spending
requests exceeding White House
targets.
The requests will be returned to
the agencies for reworking in eaily
December, Miller said. The budget
will be submitted to Congress in
January or early February.
The budget director also said in
his speech that he is likely to
recommend to Reagan a "real"
defense spending increase of 3
percent above the $289.7 billion
appropriated by Congress for this
year. OMB spokesman Edwin Dale
Jr. said this would translate to an
actual increase of 6 percent once
inflation was calculated into the
formula, suggesting a defense spend
ing request in the neighborhood of
$308 billion.
This is still $10 billion below the
spending increase reportedly being
sought by Defense Secretary Caspar
Weinberger.
affairs, said that most divisions are
larger because they include financial
aid, admissions and registration
departments. Although tradition has
helped dictate which departments
are administered by UNCs Division
of Student Affairs, Boulton said
there was another reason for the
variety of departments.
"The diversity of things we do has
a common theme throughout, and
that's the student and the student's
needs," he said. "To me the student
is absolutely essential to the running
of this division. This is where you
can learn from us and where we can
learn from you how better to do what
we do." s
Frederic Schroeder, dean of stu
dents, agrees.
"Students are the reason we're
here," he said. "They provide ele
ments of direction and correction."

project committees, students have an
